We had been looking forward to our trip to Reno. I had never been before, and Marcus hadn't been for a long time. Logan is from Fallon, which is pretty close, and Marcus has a lot of family in the Reno area. We decided to stay with Marcus' grandparents for the weekend in Reno, and then on Saturday, we attended the wedding events around Reno and Fallon.
Our plans were changed when we found out the Marcus' cousin was killed in a car accident. Alisa was driving to the airport late, and they are saying a drunk driver hit her. Everyone died, including her unborn baby who was due a month later. It was so tragic. The only good thing was that we were already planning to be in Reno so we were able to attend some of the funeral events.
It was definitely a weekend of a lot of highs and lows emotionally, but we were grateful to be part of the wedding and funeral events.
We also had a few car issues on the way there. We had to jump the car before we left, and the battery completely died as we arrived at Marcus' grandparents' home. It could have been worse for sure, but we were able to get everywhere we needed to (after the new battery in Reno).

Chase is always ready for a roadtrip |
Especially if there are snacks |
Marcus' uncle Rich bribed Chase to go to the store with him by getting Play-Doh. They both had a lot of fun making cakes with the Play-Doh cake bakery.
I don't have other pictures, besides from the wedding. Guess that means that we have to go back sometime and visit with the Reno Hardys again soon!
